Entertainment Reviews:
It's saying something when Tom Arnold's performance is among the movie's highlights.
Washington Post
If all this leaves viewers more drained than exhilarated, that's the nature of this particular beast.

You'll have to check your brain at the door, but as long as you remember to pick it up on the way out, you should be fine.

Rating: 2/4 --
Absurdity is one of Cradle 2 the Grave's two fatal flaws. The other is predictability.

Star-Democrat (Easton, MD)
...[Li's] precision foot- and fist-work remain superlative....[DMX] registers with a cool, commanding presence...
Variety
[DMX] acts like he raps -- in fits and starts, with heaps of ruff growling. Li barely has enough lines to qualify for a SAG card.

...Beneath its hip-hop flash, CRADLE 2 THE GRAVE works the kung-fu version of the David-and-Goliath myth...
New York Times
Product Description:
Jet Li once again joins up with a musical costar in Andrzej Bartkowiak's thrill-a-minute CRADLE 2 THE GRAVE. Li was introduced to American audiences as the villain in Richard Donner's LETHAL WEAPON 4, which featured former Crystals lead singer Darlene Love. Li got his first English-language starring role in Bartkowiak's ROMEO MUST DIE, with the late Aaliyah and rapper DMX. The director has reteamed Li and DMX as men on opposite sides of the law who are forced to work together in CRADLE. DMX plays Fait, a powerful man with a deep love for black diamonds but a deeper love for his daughter (who gets kidnapped). Li is Su, a Taiwanese agent--Fait calls him the Kung Fu James Bond--who has come to Los Angeles to find the stones and capture his former partner, Ling (Mark Dacascos), who is after the gems as well. The action is fast and furious as Su sides with Fait to battle helicopters, trains, fancy cars, motorcycles, tanks, and flying ATVs in rings of fire and pouring rain. High-tech heists and heavy heat send the action quotient soaring while Tom Arnold supplies comic relief and karate hottie Kelly Hu adds mystery and romance (along with awesome martial arts stunts).
